Abstract
Method and apparatus for producing a coated and twisted textile product from discontinuous glass fibers that are effectively interengaged into a relatively loosely associated longitudinal sliver-like grouping. The uncoated grouping is advanced from a container, along a path, for further processing. The grouping is twisted at a location along the path of advancement of the grouping. A coating is applied to the advancing grouping by passing the grouping through a coating passageway containing coating material. The coating passageway being located at a position along the path where the grouping is relatively unaffected by the twist being applied by the twisting means, so as to promote penetration of the coating material into the interior of the grouping.
